Do you have a drawer full of used phones and adapters? Do you hide old computers and cords in a closet? Are you afraid to get rid of these cords, adapters and old phones for fear that you “might need them”? Or, is it a matter of just not knowing what to do with them? Should they be recycled, donated or thrown in the trash?
According to the Consumer Electronics Association, the average life expectancy for smartphones is 4.7 years and for computers is 4 years. I think that’s being generous.
What it means for you is less space in your closet or drawers. It’s time to do something about it.
To tackle decluttering the electronics on your own, read on to get the electronic clutter out of your home and become e-waste-free.
Steps to Getting Rid of Unwanted and Used Phones and Electronics
1. Sell them. A lot of phones, tablets and laptops can be sold, even if they are no longer working.
2. Donate them. There are people in need that will benefit from your electronic donation.
3. Recycle them. Electronics contain things that are not good for the environment and should be recycled rather than thrown in the trash.
